How to Convert Cubic Yards to Liters

To convert a measurement in cubic yards to a measurement in liters, multiply the volume by the following conversion ratio: 764.55487 liters/cubic yard.

Since one cubic yard is equal to 764.55487 liters, you can use this simple formula to convert:

liters = cubic yards × 764.55487

The volume in liters is equal to the volume in cubic yards multiplied by 764.55487.

For example, here's how to convert 5 cubic yards to liters using the formula above.

liters = (5 yd³ × 764.55487) = 3,822.77435 L

What is a Cubic Yard?

The cubic yard is a unit of volume that is equal to the space consumed by a cube with each edge measuring one yard.

The cubic yard is a US customary and imperial unit of volume. A cubic yard is sometimes also referred to as a cubic yd. Cubic yards can be abbreviated as yd³, and are also sometimes abbreviated as cu yard, cu yd, or CY. For example, 1 cubic yard can be written as 1 yd³, 1 cu yard, 1 cu yd, or 1 CY.

You can calculate volume using a cubic yardage calculator if you have the dimensions of a space or object.

What is a Liter?

A liter is a unit of volume equal to 1,000 cubic centimeters or 0.264172 US gallons.^[1] The liter is a special name defined for the cubic decimeter and is exactly equal to the volume of one cubic decimeter (1 decimeter is 1/10 of a meter, or 10 centimeters).

The liter is an SI accepted unit for volume for use with the metric system. A liter is sometimes also referred to as a litre. Liters can be abbreviated as L, and are also sometimes abbreviated as l or ℓ. For example, 1 liter can be written as 1 L, 1 l, or 1 ℓ.
